2 teens charged with cattle rustling in multiple Minn. counties

Two teenagers have been charged with cattle rustling in three Minnesota counties.

Criminal complaints accuse Jesse Ronsberg, 19, of Rothsay and a 16-year-old Barnseville boy with stealing 17 calves from farms in Stearns, Todd and Douglas counties last November. The calves are valued at about $3,000.

The St. Cloud Times reports the two planned to sell the calves.
